paul ryan says increasing revenue is off the table for now. the gop, the tax hikes during the fiscal cliff stuff. do they do it again? >> he was also asked and side stepped whether or not you could close loopholes. it is another way to get revenue. that is what david gregory asked him. he had a nonresponse response to that. there are other ways to get revenue than across the board tax hike. we know we just litigated that. i don't think that congressman ryan was very responsive to that line of thinking. people on both sides say there are loopholes that can be closed. >> this is paul ryan talking about what he learned after the 2012 loss. take a listen. >> what do you think the party should learn? >> we had to expand our appeal. we had to expand our appeal to more people and show how we will take the country's founding principles and apply them to offer solutions. >> that sounds like a lot of corporate speak. what is your sense of the gop's efforts so far? >> it's a little bit vague. you mentioned the immigration and that is one area where i thi

let me point out, michael, you have paul ryan on "meet the press" and extensive interview and praising marco rubio's immigration stance. >> i support earned legalization, not rewarding people for cut in line but fix this problem. >> will he be an effective voice bringing over conservatives who may be still apprehensive or for that matter on the subject alone? michael, he did not have this bold view when it was perhaps needed during the election cycle. >> well, the only person that i remember broaching this subject in primary season was former house speaker newt gingrich at a time you will remember, tamron, he was briefly the front-runner and when he spoke out on this issue, there were cat calls from some of the base within the republican party, so maybe rubio is better suited for obvious reasons to be the standard bearer for a new approach. >> thank you all. we'll talk about this more with the president in nevada tomorrow. another breaking story we are following, this came down also about 20 minutes ago with the boy scouts of america and the ban on gay scouts and scout leaders. nbc's j
